#52733, "Poll question: Who has lowered their car? Any camber problems? stock shocks/struts?"




          

i lowered my rs by myself and never had any camber issues. i am worried tho that when i lower my gst it will have camber problems. i rode on stock struts and shocks.

I wonder if putting new shocks on is what causes camber problems?

i dont think that changing the shocks will effect camber but changing the springs might change the camber.

how do you know youve never had camber problems. have you taken it to get aligned or do you have a computer in your head that calculates exact camber from just looking at the wheels

it really just depends on how much u lower the car.....when u go to get an alignment....get them to check the camber......shocks should have nothing to do with it anyway because they dont lower your car anymore from what u have it at now......u get problems because when u lower the body the wheels start to bow in.....the wheels cant get any lower so it pulls on them....just get a camber kit and all will be good

dfresh

will post more pics when front is painted
